It has been a couple of days since our secret relationship was no longer a secret relationship... I hate myself for not being as careful as I could've been, but I couldn't stop myself. It was like that boy set me on a trance.

Today, Draco seemed off. More off than usual. He has been more on edge like he was being watched with every move he takes.

"Malfoy?..Whats wrong dear? I asked as I traced his face.

With no response, his blue lifeless eyes filled with tears as he tried to spit out the words. "Last night.. last night I was chosen Coleman, he was about to know about you too because of Sam, I guess she was in the crowd last week when our secret was out, and now she knows about you. If I don't start my mission now... he will kill you and myself." He exclaimed as he rested his head on my shoulder.

My eyes widen. That bitch. I can't believe she went off and told him. Then again, she was nothing more than a spy for her father. Doing whatever she could to get a little praise from him. Draco tells me everything that happens in the meetings, and I never felt bad for Riddle, not once. What Draco just told me, also didn't help me like her either.


"No..no..no" I stuttered as my body began to uncontrollably shake. "This is all my fault." I chocked. This made Draco sit up at the speed of light.

"No it wasn't Coleman, it was mine. I knew what would happen if we got into a relationship, but I still proceed it. I was acting foolish." He said in defense. I had no words to respond with as my mouth started to get dry.

"When do you have to do your mission.. and what is your mission?" I asked not really wanting to know the answer to that.

Draco hesiated a little before replying. " I have to somehow let the death eaters in the school... and kill Albus Dumbledore." He choked out. "Inside the room of requirements, there is this old cabinet I have to fix, which will allow them in." He sighed. " Trust me, I don't want to do this as much as the next person, but if i don't, my life - your life is a stake." He said as he gripped my shoulders, looking dead in my eyes.

"When do you have to do this." I said. I could feel my body tense up. My heart grew heavy with fear. I don't have the right words to say as I knew that there wasn't anything I can say or do to make this situation better... or so I thought.

"I have to go back to my manor tonight, so he can give me permission to do this, and as soon as he gives me the word, I start." He said looking down.

I realized what I had to do, he has been going through so much, he needs a break. If that means taking his place, then so be it. I would do anything for this boy.

~~~~~~

I waited till it was dark, knowing Draco would go as soon curfew past. I kissed Hermione's head and looked at the boys for the last time. " I'm sorry, don't hate me." I whispered as I left a note on the common room table.

I made my way down the changing stairs, I swear those stairs will give me a heart attack. Once I made my way down, I noticed a tall figure, who made out to be the one and only Draco Malfoy. I made a smile. I quickly followed him, hoping he won't catch me until we got to his manor. I know what I'm doing will get myself killed, but this boy deserves a chance to be a boy and not a killer.

I creeped into train station. I saw snape there as well. I guess snape was sending him off to his death. I quickly made myself invisible as I got onto the train.

Was I really cut out for this? Am I read to just throw my life away? I looked over at Draco and saw him crying to the window. Seeing him like this, made me remember why I am risking my life in the first place. I flushed out my thoughts and tried to get some sleep.





Hours later, I managed to tumble to the ground as the trains came to a stop, which made my invisible charm wear off.

"Estella???" Draco yelled. "What are you doing here?" His voice risen as he made his hand into a fist. Instead of saying anything, I ran into the manor. I'm not going to let him stop me.

"Ella!" Draco yelled as he ran behind me.

He was too late. I opened the doors as I allowed myself to breath in the musty air. It smelled like death. I gaged at the smell, but I continued to walk.

"And whom may you be?" Lucius asked me as Bellatrix ran her fingers threw my hair. I tried my best to swallow my fear as I saw Sam walk down the staircase.

"Oh its you." Sam said as she pushed her hair back." Bella, Lucius meet Draco's girlfriend." She laughed. This made both of them take highly interest in me. I gave a glare at Sam. Thanks for that. With that, she walked away.

"Stop Don't you dare touch her." Draco yelled. I turned my head around to see him with his house elf. I'm assuming that is Dobby, Harry mentioned him a couple of times.

"Draco stop, i'm going to take your place... you deserve a chance at life." I said as I looked down.

"To hell you are." Draco sneered. Slapping Bellas hand away from me. "I said dont touch her. You may be my aunt, and my father, but don't think for a second that I won't hurt you." As he shoved his wand close to them.

"I knew I heard a familiar tone." Lord Voldemort hissed, his daughter walking behind him.

"Welcome Draco, ah it looks like you brought a friend. Who may this be?" Voldemort said as he made his way to me. Within each step I felt like my soul left my body. I remained to stay quite as I looked over to Draco.

"She's no one sir." Draco replied as he looked back to me. "Absolutely no one." I could feel my cheeks heat up. I know he was just saying those things so I wont get hurt, but it still killed me inside.

"Is that so? Then why is she here?" He said, obviously not buying a thing Draco was saying.

"Yes my lord." Draco said hesitantly.

"Alright then, Bell put her in the cell, Now!" Voldemort order.

Within seconds, I was thrown into the malfoy cellar with no one. Or so I thought
